Publisher's Note
In Anything We Love Can Be Saved, Alice Walker writes about her life as an activist, in a book rich in the belief that the world is saveable, if only we will act. Speaking from her heart on a wide range of topics--religion and the spirit, feminism and race, families and identity, politics and social change--Walker begins with a moving autobiographical essay in which she describes her own spiritual growth and roots in activism. She goes on to explore many important private and public issues: being a daughter and raising one, dreadlocks, banned books, civil rights, and gender communication. She writes about Zora Neale Hurston and Salman Rushdie and offers advice to Bill Clinton. Here is a wise womans thoughts as she interacts with the world today, and an important portrait of an activist writer's life.
The beloved author of "The Color Purple" writes of her life as an activist, in a book rich in the belief that the world is salvageable--if only we will act. She offers advice to Bill Clinton, to Fidel Castro, and to young women growing up. She comments on culture and cats, feminism and race, writing and living.

Industry reviews
"Just when you think Alice Walker has empathized her way as far as any writer can go--she goes further....Each essay is a gift."
other - Gloria Steinem 

"Walker continues to be one of the most incendiary and subversive writers published today."
San Francisco Chronicle - Patricia Holt (04/20/1997)

"Alice Walker is a true warrior. She is a friend to the friendless ones, and an inspiratrice to all whose voices are yet only whispers. Her father taught her that 'it is possible for the word to become mightier than the sword'. She passes the legacy on, with straight aim, sweet compassion, and fury befitting a wise elder."
other - Clarissa Pinkola Estes 

"Constantly testing and stretching her readers' imaginations and boundaries, Walker expresses her warmth, her anger, her optimism in this provocative, lively collection."
Faust 

"One of the best American writers of today."
Eder 

"Thoughtful and searching."
Cooke 

"Brilliant, unabashed....Walker wears her heart on her sleeve."
Cooke
